Rich, This is a very clever use of the K3's macro facility.
Here's how it works (for those who are not quite motivated enough to look up all those commands): Each of the three switch macros sets a different power level -- that's the obvious part (PCxxx). Normally, you'd assign each of them to a different programmable switch and leave it at that. Instead, Rich set up the macros so that holding PF2 not only changes the power level, it then *changes* PF2's macro assignment to the next macro in the sequence. The last macro (100 W) "wraps" back to the first macro (10 W). It's a little bit like self-modifying code. Wish I had thought of this myself :) You could use the same technique to set up a single programmable switch to top among a few favorite frequencies, or even bands, on repeated taps. 73, Wayne N6KR On Jul 9, 2012, at 12:14 PM, Rich - K1HTV wrote: > > Macro# Label (10W) (Macro) (6) (PF2H) (Menu) > 5 10W PC010;MN110;SWT29;SWH47;SWT14; > > Label (50W) (Macro) (7) (PF2H) (Menu) > 6 50W PC050;MN110;SWT33;SWH47;SWT14; > > Label (100W) (Macro) (5) (PF2H) (Menu) > 7 100W PC100;MN110;SWT27;SWH47;SWT14; ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
